I wan thinking we could keep a list of changes in the expansion not listed in the patch notes. This is not for bugs, mistakes or anything. I can update this topic as things are found.

Changes not in patch notes
-Serpentrex added to Nuema boss rotation (possible for 2 Nuemas in one Wraithgate run)
-Hooli the Black added to Nuema boss rotation (possible for 2 Nuemas in one Hallucinatory run)
-Something in the Snow added to daily active points rotation
-Something in the Snow gives an FSP coin (3 a day for all dailies now)
-When clicking an NPC to autopath, you will automatically descend to land on the NPC regardless if 'end flight' is checked or not when flying. Upon arrival, you will automatically talk to NPC.
-When auto-pathing to mobs, you will automatically attack the nearest one upon arrival
-Unread mail icon moved to under the mini-map (right of the event calendar button)
-Auto-accept squad invites changed to 'on' by default
-Pickaxe no longer required for farming nodes. No longer sold at merchants
-Flying over or entering a city or village automatically activates the teleporter waypoint
-Completing a Cultivation quest brings up a splash window showing all Cultivation steps
-Leveling reward chests have changed (if anyone gets a documented list, I'll add it in here)
-Gear drops NPC value has been lowered significantly
-While in squad, the color of the circle outline around party members class icon represents their gender. Blue circle is male, pink is female.
-New Teleporter and Telestone in East Archosaur by faction base NPC
-Daily check-in rewards improved. Amount of prizes awarded dependent on how many days checked-in within a month.
-Entire screen flashes red when the low HP warning text pops up
-Coming of Age quest line (Goshiki chain) now starts at level 50
-New teleport added to go up and down from Heaven's Tear

Bugs and glitches
-Officers in faction list are hidden
-Names of Avatar slots are missing (with the exception of "Battle")
-Hyper EXP interface does not show the EXP bonus granted for top two durations
-Old hairstyles for original races missing in character creation (I assume this was not intentional)
-Apparently the TW times are borked and the primary slots are 9am and 2pm on Saturday instead of 2pm and 8pm on Saturday. (was this intentional?)
-Blacksmith Tang no longer offers the quest "Blade of Fire".
-"Report to the Elder" does not activate after completing a Tower quest.

    Something rather important for anti-social people like myself and those who don't want to join in squads unless they planned too...

    --Auto-accept squad invites when not in a squad is now ON by default--

    Just rolled on to my Cleric and was beating up snowmen when suddenly I'm in a squad what. Not cool PWI, not cool. I turned that off for a reason.

    The level-up rewards changed. At least the pre-60 ones. For instance, the Deep Reflection items(forget what they're called) now are rewarded at a later level.

    Assistant wang Tsai interface for decompose dreamchaser gear has been modified: not separated by categories anymore (duke, minister, royal, etc)

    Also it seems to be glitched (unless I'm doing something wrong)

    On all my toons, I got a new, small skillbar in the upper left corner. Usually that wouldn't bother me, but in my cleric's case, that skillbar is right over her face. It looks like it's the same skillbar/indicator the new classes get. I can't move it - I've already tried changing resolutions, disabling the interface, minimizing the avatar, verifying the files, etc.

    Here's what it looks like.

    On archer.

    Does anyone know how to get rid of that thing?

    When in squad, there are blue and pink circles around the class icons. From what I can tell, the blue represents a male character and the pink represents a female.

    Edit: I think I know how. On the top left hand corner of your screen, right above your HP bar, you should see a blue wrench icon. That's the Optimization Settings. Click on it, and go to the Settings tab. Check off "Hide the display of Thunderball and Iceball on Luna Watcher portrait" and hit confirm. See if that works.

    This is pretty neat. I hadn't even noticed the different colors until you pointed it out. tested it out and all girls show as pink and boys blue. Cool :D

    It may have just been moved, the patch notes says they moved alot of NPC's around

    Going to hold of listing this as a change until we know if its just broken or not.

    Off for the night, but please keep replying with any undocumented changes that are discovered and I will edit them into the list in the morning b:victory

    -When clicking an NPC to autopath, you will automatically descend to land on the NPC regardless if 'end flight' is checked or not when flying. Upon arrival, you will automatically talk to NPC.

    On the paperclip quest I ran tonight, this only happened on the first 2-3 stops. After that it was back to normal hovering in the air, so I'm not sure what triggers it. Same thing happened on a second character, though he only flew down to 2 NPCs before he went back to normal.

    I think the character needs to be low enough to 'see' the NPC in order to talk to them automatically. If you're way up high when you arrive, the character can't 'see' the NPC so can't talk to them.

    - "Perfect Spring" quest no longer exists for characters below level 40. Instead, it's giving out a ton of XP for higher level folks. The NPCs to beat have been beefed accordingly - not sure how a lvl 90 arcane is going to solo that, but hokay...


    Also, has anyone figured out what the two circles below your head icon (top left) do? Seems to be part of the interface but I haven't see em do anything yet.

    Stormbringers have 3. They have to do with the Ice and Thunder charges. Other than that I haven't figured out any more except that maybe having full charges all the same dealing more damage? That's speculation.

    ETA: Under transcendent you can see the charge effects in the skills.
